Planning and Evaluation of Irrigation Projects
Author: Raveendra Kumar RaiPublisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0128118563
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 680
Book Description
Planning and Evaluation of Irrigation Projects: Methods and Implementation presents the considerations, options and factors necessary for effective implementation of irrigation strategies, going further to provide methods for evaluating the efficiency of systems-in-place for remedial correction as needed. As the first book to take this lifecycle approach to agricultural irrigation, it includes real-world examples not only on natural resource availability concerns, but also on financial impacts and measurements. With 21 chapters divided into two sections, this book is a valuable resource for agricultural and hydrology engineers, conservation scientists and anyone seeking to implement and maintain irrigation systems. - Uses real-world examples to present practical insights - Incorporates both planning and evaluation for full-scope understanding and application - Illustrates both potential benefits and limitations of irrigation solutions - Provides potential means to increase crop productivity that can result in improved farm income

Monitoring Soil Moisture for Irrigation Water Management
Author: Blaine HansonPublisher: University of California, Agriculture and Natural Resources
ISBN: 9781601074812
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 58
Book Description
Monitoring soil moisture is an alternate method to water-based balance methods of managing irrigation water. Using this method you can "see" what is going on in the soil and determine answers to some key irrigation management questions: Did enough water infiltrate the soil? Is too much water being applied? What is the water uptake pattern of the roots? When should irrigation take place? What was the depth reached by the irrigation? Includes 24 figures and 7 tables, metric conversions, and an appendix of typical root depths. One of a series of water management handbooks prepared by the UC Irrigation Program.
